    How to Grow Your Business Without Burning Out

    What if you could make meaningful progress in your business without hustling 24/7? In this episode of Called to Impact, host Genesis Krick explores how strategic sprints can help entrepreneurs, business owners, and busy parents achieve important goals while making time for family, rest, and what matters most. After a busy season launching her latest book, Organized Flexibility, Genesis shares why sustainable success requires knowing when to push forward and when to slow down. What Are Strategic Sprints? Strategic sprints are short, intentional periods of focused effort designed around specific priorities, measurable actions, and your real-life responsibilities. Rather than trying to accomplish everything at once, this approach helps you identify what matters most right now and create a realistic plan to move forward. In This Episode, You'll Learn: What strategic sprints are and how they work How to identify your top priorities for the next one to three weeks Why focused work periods are more sustainable than constant hustle How to turn business goals into measurable actions How to build a schedule around your actual capacity Ways to prepare for demanding seasons of business and life How to balance business travel, family responsibilities, and personal time Why reviewing your progress is essential How to make room for rest and recovery Why you don't need your entire year planned to make meaningful progress Finding Balance While Building a Business Genesis shares how she approaches strategic sprints in her own life, from setting sales and relationship-building goals to coordinating business travel with family time. Her message is simple: You can grow your business without making every week a sprint. Success isn't about constantly moving faster. It's about knowing when to focus, when to take action, and when to slow down. Whether you're growing a business, raising a family, launching a new project, or looking for more balance, this episode offers a practical way to make progress with greater clarity and intention.

    Why Your Networking Events Aren't Working

    You attended the event. You met some incredible people. You exchanged contact information. Now what? In this episode of Called to Impact, Genesis Krick shares four practical steps for turning the connections you make at conferences, networking events, and other experiences into meaningful relationships, collaborations, and opportunities. Too often, we leave an event energized and inspired, only to return to everyday life and never follow up with the people we met. Genesis explains why the real value of networking often happens after you leave the room. She shares why you should follow up while the connection is still fresh, how to provide value instead of simply asking for something, why your outreach should be personal, and how to create a clear next step that makes continuing the relationship easy. Whether that means inviting someone onto your podcast, featuring them in your newsletter, collaborating on social media, or simply scheduling another conversation, the goal is to keep a meaningful connection from becoming a missed opportunity. In this episode: • Why networking doesn't end when the event does • The importance of following up within 48 hours • Why Genesis recommends taking a photo with new connections • How to provide value when following up • Making your outreach personal • Questions to ask while you're networking • How to create a clear next step • Turning connections into collaborations • Building long-term strategic relationships • Why most people fail to follow through after events Don't just collect contacts.

    How to Grow a Business Without Losing Your Marriage

    Can you build a successful business without sacrificing your marriage, family, or faith? In this episode of Called to Impact, Genesis Krick sits down with business coach, keynote speaker, author, and trainer Dave Kauffman, President of Empowering Small Business, for a conversation about the unique challenges facing entrepreneurial couples. Dave shares lessons from more than 20 years of working with business owners, including how differences in communication, decision-making, risk tolerance, and personality can slowly create distance between spouses. Genesis and Dave discuss why understanding yourself and your spouse is critical, how tools like DISC can improve communication, and why couples need a shared vision if they want to grow together rather than simply build successful lives alongside one another.

In this episode: • Why successful businesses can still create struggling marriages • The communication gap many entrepreneurial couples face • How personality differences affect business decisions • Why one spouse may be the "gas pedal" while the other is the "brakes" • How past business failures can affect a marriage years later • Why understanding your spouse matters more than trying to change them • Using DISC to improve communication and self-awareness • Creating shared goals and a common vision • Growing together instead of growing apart • Why your spouse and family should never become secondary to the business • The upcoming mastermind for entrepreneurial couples • Dave Kauffman's EDGEcon 2027 conference FREE MASTERCLASS: https://genesis-krick.mykajabi.com/build-together-masterclass-register Learn more about EDGEcon: https://edgeconusa.com Connect with Dave Kauffman: Website: https://davekauffmanspeaks.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davekauffmanspeaks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/davekauffmanSpeaks YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DaveKauffman/featured The next EDGEcon is scheduled for March 4–6, 2027, with a focus on reimagining, rediscovering, and reigniting your life and business.

    What happens when a moment changes the direction of your life—and you feel called to do something bigger with it? In this episode of Called to Impact, Genesis welcomes Kimberly Fletcher, founder and president of Moms for America, for a conversation about faith, motherhood, leadership, entrepreneurship, perseverance, civic engagement, and having the courage to act on your convictions. Kimberly shares the pivotal experience that changed her life: September 11, 2001. Her husband was stationed at the Pentagon and made it home safely that day. Kimberly describes how that experience caused her to think differently about citizenship, freedom, and the kind of country her children would inherit.
